퓰리처 상, 전미 도서상, 미국 도서상, 도서비평가협회상, 미국 예술원 국민 훈장. 미국 작가로서 받을 수 있는 모든 상을 휩쓸다시피 한 천재 이야기꾼 존 치버의 장편 연작 『왑샷 가문 연대기』와 『왑샷 가문 몰락기』이다.

예리한 시대의식으로 중산층의 일상을 자신의 문학적 보고로 삼았던 존 치버는 여러 단편들을 발표하며 ‘교외의 체호프’라는 별명을 얻었다. 그가 추구해 온 ‘일상성의 미학’을 잘 표현해 주는 말이다. 그는 왑샷 가문 연작에서도 변두리 사람들의 일상에 대한 애착을 고스란히 드러냈다. 이 작품에 등장하는 왑샷 가문 사람들은 세인트보톨프스라는 작은 어촌 마을에 사는 평범한 사람들이다. 그들은 특별한 매력을 타고난 운수 좋은 사람들도 아니고, 기막히게 명줄이 긴 영웅들도 아니다. 치버는 현대 사회가 직면한 인간성 상실이라는 심오하고 철학적인 주제를 다루면서도 어느 특별한 사람들의 삶을 두리번거리지 않는다. 우리가 주변에서 흔히 볼 수 있는 장면들을 재미있게 변형할 뿐이다. ‘촌사람’라는 말이 미국식으로도 어색하지 않다면 왑샷 가문 사람들은 그야말로 촌사람, 변두리 보통 사람들이다. 하지만 그들의 사소하고 시시콜콜한 일상에서 거대한 현대 사회의 어두운 부분을 읽어 내도록 하는 존 치버의 놀라운 통찰력을 느낄 수 있다.
